Looks like I'm a Saturday ticker change now! After my appt yesterday, my OB decided to go with my EDD based on LMP, not O.
Week/Fruit: 7, blueberry
Symptoms: Super sore boobs, some mild nausea started this past week, way sensitive sense of smell, bloating, and intermittent cramping
Appointments or Milestones: I posted in the limbo check-in thread, but we had a follow-up u/s yesterday to check on things since I'd been spotting the past two weeks, with two instances of bright red bleeding. We were so relieved and thrilled to see a heartbeat!! Baby is growing right on track, heartbeat was at 120. My OB wants to proceed as normal at this point, so we did the whole new patient appointment with a full exam, patient history, etc. yesterday.
Questions, concerns, comments: While I still feel a little nervous about spotting so frequently, I'm cautiously optimistic since my OB isn't worried about it. She thinks that it's just a sensitive cervix. Also, I'm bummed because she's restricted exercise and sex for the next 6 weeks. Of course it's worth it, but I miss both.
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? I have brown hair that I've never colored, though I'm thinking of doing some subtle highlights as a treat to myself. It's a few inches past my shoulders, layered, and I can style it either straight or wavy/curly.
That's awesome @katietopaz. I missed your update somehow. I glad everything looks good.
Week/Fruit:6 sweet pea
Symptoms: Nothing. My boobs have even quit hurting so much and aren't as big. I guess my only symptom is peeing a lot.
Appointments or Milestones: I have an appt Tuesday and hopefully will see a heartbeat. We saw 1 sac last week with a yolk sac measuring about 1 day ahead.
Questions, concerns, comments: nothing really, I've been here so many times I kinda know what to expect.
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? I have long thick naturally curly hair, cork screw type. It's dark brown with red highlights. I was strawberry blonde when I finally got hair at 2 and it just got darker. I just started having to permanently color it (damn grey) but I try to keep the same color.
Symptoms: random waves of mild nausea and strong cravings.
Appointments or Milestones: no appt until the 16th. I consider it a milestone that my baby it no longer as small as seeds. Haha.
Questions, concerns, comments: I am really chomping at the bit to announce publicly! I don't know how I managed to wait until 13w last time. I'm just waiting until after my ultrasound this time.
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? Mine is currently not dyed so it is a weird dark blonde. I'm growing out a pixie cut so basically it's a hot mess.

I'm feeling the same way, I am so ready to tell the world! I'm trying (key word) to keep it quiet until Thanksgiving and it's killing me!
We've told parents and siblings and bffs. Then I slipped up to a couple coworkers. But dammit I just am ready for everyone to know.
Week/Fruit: Week 10/Prune...although I prefer another site that listed strawberry. I don't mind prunes...but pic on the ticker looks like a turd or lump of coal Symptoms: MS is much better - still there, but I have longer spurts of feeling normal. I did groceries this morning which was a huge milestone. Appointments or Milestones: First OB appointment Tuesday. I'm anxious to see the baby and HB, especially since my symptoms are less. Questions, concerns, comments: The sudden drop off in symptoms and cramping makes me nervous. Before the cramping was twinges...but this last week it's been a little closer to period cramps. Do the cramps get a little more heavy duty as you get further along?
QOTW: I have brown hair, medium length. Normally is a wavy, frizzy mess, but lately I straighten it more.
Me 33, DH 37 -- TTC since Jan'12 -- Low AMH (0.78) & endo, SA w/ low motility IUI's 1-3 = BFN, IVF converted to IUI 4/13 = BFN IVF 1.2: 8R 6M 4F -- 2 blastocysts frozen, FET 8/15 = BFP!! Beta #s = 445;1,098; 9,545 -- EDD 5/2 -- Team Pink!
Week/Fruit: 7 Weeks/Blueberry Symptoms: Typical M/S...major food aversions (Sadly, I can't stand cheese which is normally my favorite food). I actually got sick for the first time a few days ago but haven't since then. Thirsty and peeing lots. Appointments or Milestones: We have our first appointment on Thursday. We are so excited. I called to see what all to expect and they told us we do get an ultrasound. That makes me happy because we are going home to visit my family a few days after. I hope everything goes well at the appointment so I can share positive news with everyone. Questions, concerns, comments: Not really. My only concern is how my appointment is going to go. This is our first child so I don't really know what to expect. Plus, I hate getting my blood drawn. Yes, I'm a wuss and I realize that I have much more painful things to dread along the way. I keep telling myself it's worth it. GTKY - What color and style hair do you have? My hair is dark brown with some natural highlights, straight, and very long. I chopped it off years ago and have been growing it out since. It's the longest it's ever been. Not quite to the middle of my back but it's close.
Appointments or Milestones: My first obgyn appointment is this comin Thursday.
Questions, concerns, comments: Um, should I be worried that my bloat and symptoms have all gone? It's been 3 days now, I only have tender breasts. I have lots of energy today and do not feel remotely pregnant.
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have?
I have brown hair, close to my natural colour. I have naturally curly hair I get chemically straightened which I won't be doing while pregnant.

GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? It changes a lot (former hairstylist), but right now it's a brunette bob. I've been growing it out from a pixie I got last winter. I might throw some ombré on it next time I have it colored.

Week 7 size of a blueberry. Symptoms: sore boobs for weeks! They hurt so bad when I take my bra off! Nausea without vomiting, food aversions, my sense of smell is so keen and mild headaches from time to time. I am also super thirsty and peeing alot! Appointment: First one is Tuesday and we can't wait!! Questions, concerns, comments: This is such a happy time yet I am so nervous at the same time! I just pray for a happy healthy baby each day!
I missed yesterday's ticker change, so I'm chiming in on this one!
Week/Fruit: 7 weeks- blueberry!
Symptoms: still very mild compared to some, but I'm exhausted and STARVING all.the.time. I eat and then an hour later my stomach is growling. And yes, I've been trying to eat protein to fill me up-- it's not helping much
Appointments or Milestones: First appointment is on Friday-- so excited and crazy nervous at the same time
Questions, concerns, comments: Nada.
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? My hair has pretty much stayed the same since high school. It's light brown, parted on the side, long-ish (decently past my shoulders). I'm boring-- the biggest change I've ever done is get bangs two years ago!
Symptoms: Nausea throughout the day, fatigue, and bloating - so glamorous!!
Appointments or Milestones: Going to our first ultrasound in a few days! Excited to see what's going on with the little blob
Questions, concerns, comments: Still not exactly feeling 'excited' about everything...feeling a little detached from being pregnant - or at least that it's still a bit surreal. I feel guilty about this and feel like I'm the only one since everyone else on this board (and in real life) seem to be super stoked! Hoping this doesn't make me a horrible mother-to-be... GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? Shoulder-length black hair with bangs and layers... have had blonde 'peek-a-boos' for six years that have sometimes been different colours (purple, red, orange, etc.) and my bangs were purple before too, but now are just blonde Looking forward to being able to do a little more after baby arrives!
Appointments or Milestones: I have my first OB appointment on the 20th Oct which I think will also be the NT test
Questions, concerns, comments: I am the same as a couple of you ladies, I want to tell people now!!! Only my parents know, and this weekend at thanksgiving dinner we are telling SO's parents GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What colour and style hair do you have? I have medium length brown hair with a fringe (bangs). I need my roots done and I think I'm going to go ombre again as I really love that look
I am late, don't really bump much on the weekends (try to avoide the computer after being at it all week)
Week/Fruit: Week 8 / Raspberry
Symptoms: Food cravings and a few aversions, heavier boobs, tired (but might not be pg related) thats about it.
Appointments or Milestones: This Friday we have our first real doctors appointment with US I am so excited just have to make it through the week!
Questions, concerns, comments: Not really just hoping for a good appointment and us
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? Dirty blond hair (my natural color) longer (almost mid back) with a few layers sometimes I blowdry it and it is pretty straight but most times I give in to the the semi wavy mess it just is.
Appointments or Milestones: Ultrasound on the 17th, already had blood work done twice and it was increasing well.
Questions, concerns, comments: Just freaking out that I am having no symptoms.
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have?: Brown with blonde highlights. Stupid me didn't think to dye my hair before getting pregnant so now it looks awful but I can't do anything about it since I'm pregnant. My hair is short, longer in the front.
Week/Fruit: week 10 - prune... What a lame non-cute fruit.
Symptoms: big boobs, nausea, loss of appetite, so sleepy
Appointments or Milestones: had first u/s a week ago, saw the heartbeat! Next appt is in 2 weeks.
Questions, concerns, comments: looking forward to second trimester when at least I have a cute bump to show for these symptoms. And I just had apple with peanut butter and 2 peanut butter cups for dinner... Nothing wrong with that, right?
GTKY - (Borrowed from Friday's thread) What color and style hair do you have? Shoulder length blonde... I think I might jump on the ombré wagon too and let the highlights grow out.
